Description for Chevrolet Bel Air/150/210 1957

All '57 Chevys are alike, ight? Wrong! Take a good, ong look at this amazing 1957 Chevrolet 210 2-door and you'll find a huge amount of time, ffort, nd money went into the build, ith the result being a big-block show car that can hammer down the highway better than almost anything else on four wheels. It cost more than $160,000 to build, o you know it's amazing, ut you really need to see it in person to see just how spectacular it really is.The color is House of Kolor Orion Silver, wonderful, oft, ophisticated hue that gives the 210 a very expensive look. The investment in quality bodywork is evident everywhere you look and the simple 210 trim doesn't leave any areas for shoddy workmanship to hide. The deep, lossy finish not only makes heads turn with its unusual look, ut it's surprisingly easy on the eyes, iding dirt and blemishes quite well, o you don't need to be afraid to drive it. A few liberties were taken, ncluding shaving the nose emblem and trimming the deck lid, oth time-honored custom tricks that seem to pay especially big dividends on the '57 Chevys. Spectacular chrome only enhances the sparkling, igh-quality look and you know few things are more expensive to refinish than the brightwork on a '50s automobile. Add in the bright stainless body trim that's a highlight of the 210 models and you have a car that doesn't have a single wrong line on it anywhere.There's not much 1957 left inside with a pair of gorgeous custom buckets up front and spectacular red leather upholstery all around, titched by M&M Custom Interiors. The stock Chevy dash was slightly reworked and now houses a full set of bright Dakota Digital gauges in the original 3-gauge instrument panel and even though the overall look is pure 1957, t sure seems sleeker and more high-tech, oesn't it? A billet wheel with two-tone leather on the rim, lus plush red carpets, nd a custom center console all add to the modern feel and amenities such as A/C, ower windows, nd a tilt column mean that you never feel like you're driving a 60-year-old car. The styling is dramatic and careful attention to detail is why this one is a show-winner, nd you can rest assured that no car in 1957 ever looked this good. The stereo is an AM/FM/CD/iPod system that sounds great to all the extra sound-deadening materials used during the build and the trunk is outfitted with more custom stitchwork and a removable bulkhead hiding the stereo equipment and battery.Instead of a ho-hum small block, his spectacular 210 packs 427 cubic inches of Hendrick Motorsports big block V8. Like you, e're tired of seeing garden-variety engines in these cars, nd this mammoth torque factory will definitely impress passengers and onlookers alike. It's supremely smooth and thanks to a big Holley carburetor, t starts quickly, dles smoothly, nd pulls without a hitch. At shows, ou'll be extra proud to pop the hood and show off the OEM-grade mechanicals, ncluding things like the alternator and A/C compressor, s well as valve covers and even the intake manifold, hich have a cool black crinkle finish. It's really impressive. The entire chassis was custom fabricated by Fatman Fabrications, nd includes power steering and power 4-wheel disc brakes as well as a custom dual exhaust system featuring ceramic-coated long-tube headers and Flowmaster mufflers has an awesome sound that won't be easy to forget. A 700R4 4-speed automatic overdrive transmission feeds a rugged 9-inch Ford rear end with 3.73 gears inside and the suspension was lowered to give it a wicked stance. Right-sized Torque Thrust wheels look great and roll inside 245/45/17 front and 255/55/17 rear Nitto radials.With only 945 miles since the frame-off build, his car cost a heck of a lot more to build than the asking price today.
